Notes

Such a pretty pattern!
My first go with knitting cables in-the-round.
I learned a lot.

1st Sock Done = 35g (36g total with waste yarn ends)

The Ruby Heritage Solid yarn is making my fingers numb. Experiencing a little textile dye dermatitis - stinks to have an allergic reaction to this dye.

By the second sock, I found that rearranging the cable stitches on needles instead of knitting them off the cable needle, resulted in a much better cable. I’m using a marking pin to assist in stitch reorientation.

May 2013 Picked up where I left off last year!!
Slim Trim SSK for the toe decrease.
